Description
These leprechaun stations and activities go right along with the book How to Catch a Leprechaun by Adam Wallace and are perfect to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. It is one of my favorite March books! My class and I have so much fun having a How to Catch a Leprechaun Activity Day. We read the book, eat a snack, and have a ton of fun with these How to Catch a Leprechaun stations and activities! There are 10 station signs and differentiated station activities included. The stations are engaging, fun, and full of literacy skills, math skills, and STEM skills! I love using these stations around St. Patrick's Day!
